How to create a collection of best-ever threads?

[Hilary]

Hi all,

My forum has some 10 years of history, with some excellent threads hidden away in the archives. Question: is there a good way the whole forum can co-operate in marking these special threads and making them easy to find?

I don't want just to have a set of links to old threads; I'd rather have something that identifies the threads themselves (in case I change domain name and break a lot of links). I'd also like the solution to be capable of surviving an upgrade from 3.8.4 to version 4.

Suggestions?

I just had a thread where the users norminated the threads and then I wrote a page where I just enter the threadids and it spits out a list of the top threads.

A page? Is this a Vbulletin 4 CMS thing? Would solve the problem of having people filling a thread with links that all break with a change of domain name...

No, I created it myself and then added a link to it in the dropdown. It's on my vb3 site. If I was using vb4, then yes, I would just create a php page in the cms and put it there.
